Sam Sussman

Co-Founder, Extend

Extend offers educational tours of the West Bank to young American Jewish people in order to empower them to be peace leaders in their communities. Participants hear voices that rarely enter the American policy discourse on Israel-Palestine. By meeting with Israeli and Palestinian peace activists, elected officials, ex-combatants, civil society leaders and families, participants are equipped to reconcile multiple narratives of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and inspired to be agents of change in their synagogues, on their campuses, or on Capitol Hill. Sam Sussman co-founded Extend after traveling to the West Bank as a student journalist. In 2013, he graduated with degrees in political science, philosophy and literature from Swarthmore College, where he was a founding member of the campus’ J Street chapter. He has published in several prestigious journals his first-hand human rights reports from China, Myanmar, Cambodia, Athens, Jordan and Zuccotti Park. A native of Orange County, NY, Sam has been engaged in environmental, anti-war and marriage equality activism.
